Martha offers Elie's family shelter and a place to hide during World War II. Elie's family responds with gratitude and accepts her help, feeling relieved to have a safe place to stay during such dangerous times.
Elie's family refused Martha's offer to hide them because they feared the consequences if they were discovered, as Jews were being hunted and persecuted by the Nazis. They likely wanted to avoid putting Martha and her family at risk as well. Additionally, they may have believed they had a better chance of surviving by following the orders they were given.
Elie and his family are offered safe refuge by a Jewish refugee organization called the Joint Distribution Committee, which helps them escape deportation and provides assistance during the Holocaust.
In "Night" by Elie Wiesel, Martha is a kind Jewish woman who offers shelter and support to Elie and his family while they are in hiding.
